Get directions from

The train does not yet come to Rockingham but you can catch a bus to the Rockingham bus station and then catch another one to Penguin Island. By car you follow the freeway south to the end which becomes Safety Bay Road and you follow this around until you hit the water (you will see the Islands and the Cafe on the waterfront). On the corner of the point there is a cafe and a car park.

Rules:

Restricted Zones

Common sense as there are a lot of families during the summer season. Just do not get too close to Penguin and Seal Islands.

A few pubs and 2 nightclubs in Rockingham (approx 5-10 minutes from this beach).
